Having problems with your Olympus STYLUS TOUGH 8010 Digital Camera ?

Why does my olympus stylus tough 8000 say the card cover is open when it's not? The camera won't let me do anything and I only want to use it above water now anyway, so as far as I'm concerned it doesn't matter if the card cover's open!
How can I stop the camera from displaying this irritating message???

My camera will not read Kodak pics I put on the memory card, thay are ther as far as the kodak program and file manager are concerned, but the camera will not display them on its screen. The pics were taken with this camera, uploaded into computer, pics were deleated off camera, then some put back on card but camera will not display. Any ideas??

Once the pictures have gone from the camera to the computer a different code or tag is used so the computer programing can read it it's a one way ticket from the camera to the computer hard drive but not back. Once the file is opened altered (by dele ...

My Sony Cybershot Camera was dropped in water accidentally the other day. I have let it dry out as much as possible for 2 days. When I tried to use it, the camera still takes pics as it did before but it keeps saying "insert memory card" Anything more I can do? Is it worth trying it on with Sony as it's only 4 months old. Only thing is that I know that water damage is not normally covered. If they see water damage, will they bill me for the repair?

Missing Pictures I took a bunch of pictures with my Power shot A60 i went to review them and they are gone. it is strange because whenever i take pictures i look at them right after and make sure they worked... i took proably about 100 pictures and only 20 of them were on the camera. is there anyway that the memory in the actual camera filled up then switched to the memory card and some how deleted all the pictures when it switched to the memory card?
It just doesnt make sense and if that is

Canon PowerShot SD880 IS Digital Camera

The cover on the battery and SD card opening on the camera broke off and couldn't be found on the ground. A small piece of cover and the hinge are still on the camera. When the camera is turned on a message 'card cover open' comes on screen and though I made a temporary cover with a thin piece of wooden pop stick and another with some stiff card and taped them on the camera still came up with same message. Can I get a new cover/door or what can I do??

I imagine the only way to obtain a proper part is to send it to an approved Olympus service centre, hopefully under warranty (though I expect they would not regard this as covered).The camera must have some way of telling that the door is ...

Many people are unaware that the newer SDHC format cannot be used with most older cameras. Your camera was manufactured well before the SDHC format came out. I'm sorry, but there's no way that a 4GB SDHC card will work with your camera, it just doe ...

Sounds like a driver issue. A quick fix, get a card reader, take the card out and download to your computer, then reformat the card or get a new card. and then re-install the drivers to you computer. ...

I dropped my brand new panasonic lumix camera in water - can it be repaired? It was in the water approx 10 secs. Since removing the camera from the water, I removed the battery and SD card and placed it in an airing cuboard where it has been for the past 5 days. When I turned on the camera, the picture came up however a warning sign showed. The lens will not move.
